The  images  appearing  here  are  the  best  quality 
possible  considering  the  condition  and  legibility 
of  the  original  copy  and  in  keeping  with  the 
filming  contract  specifications.  ^ 


Original  copies  in  printed  paper  covers  are  filmed 
beginning  with  the  front  cover  and  ending  on 
the  last  page  with  a  printed  or  illustrated  impres- 
sion, or  the  back  cover  when  appropriate.  All 
other  original  copies  are  filmed  beginning  on  the 
first  page  with  a  printed  or  illustrated  impres- 
sion, and  ending  on  the  last  page  with  a  printed 
or  illustrated  impression. 


The  last  recorded  frame  on  each  microfiche 
shall  contain  the  symbol  — ^-  (meaning  "CON- 
TINUED"), or  the  symbol  V  (meaning  "END"), 
whichever  applies. 

Maps,  plates,  charts,  etc.,  may  be  filmed  at 
different  reduction  ratios.  Those  too  large  to  be 
entirely  included  in  one  exposure  are  filmed 
beginning  in  the  upper  left  hand  corner,  left  to 
right  and  top  to  bottom,  as  many  frames  as 
required.  The  following  diagrams  illustrate  the 
method:

THE 


IC 


INTRODUCTION, 


Till'  ()t)jcct  of  tliis  work  is  to  furnixli  an  cpitoini/cil  Intro- 
duction to  the  .Mnl)j(!(t  of  loins  from  a  numismatic  8tanil|)oint, 
with  a  practically  complete  list  of  rnitcl  States  and  (^olonial 
Coins,  and  the  Copper  Coins  of  Canada,  with  the  more  com- 
mon technical  terms  used,  tables  of  fictitious  value,  and,  in 
the  U.  S.  series,  the  number  of  each  date  and  denomination 
issued. 

It  is  designed  also  for  tradesmen,  clerks  and  others  who 
daily  handle  large  ntnnbers  of  coins,  as  it  will  enable  them 
to  rescue  from  circulation  many  that  are  worth  from  one  to 
five  hundred  times  their  face  value,  thus  saving  to  the  nu- 
mismatist pieces  that  would  otherwise  be  lost  or  injured  in 
circulation,  as  well  as  adding  to  the  finder's  income,  accord- 
ing to  his  care  and  opportunity. 

The  value  of  a  coin  does  not  depend  as  many  suppose 
upon  its  ttnliiiniti/,  but  upon  its  scarciti/  and  condition. 
Some  pieces  struck  within  a  few  years  are  far  more  valuable 
than  many  that  antedate  the  Christian  era. 

As  a  rule,  a  coin  to  be  worth  anything  must  be  in  ijood 
condition  ;  only  the  rarer  pieces  are  of  value  when  pierced, 
much  worn  or  in  any  way  defaced  ;  while  the  more  conunon 
will  command  a  premium  only  when  in  the  best  condition. 

It  may  be  well  to  remark  that  any  uncirculated  or  strictly 
Jine  coin  is  worth  retaining.  The  list  of  values  in  this  book 
is  an  average  struck  from  the  prices  paid  by  nmnerous  deal-

Technical  Terms  and   Definitions. 


A  Coin   is  n  pii-co  of  inntiil  l)(\iriiijr  sonu!  (lc(initt'  ilcvicn, 

and  is  struck  I'or  I'ir.ulatimi  as  a  rcpri'sentative  of  value. 

A  IMkdal  is  n  piece  of  metal  utruck  in  coniinenioration  o( 

gouio  person  or  event,  unil  is  not  ilesiyned  for  a  cu'cu- 

latiiijr  luodiinu. 

A  ToKKN  is  a  piece  stamped  and  issued  liy  private  parties, 
and  is  not  lawful  currency,  tliou^;li  used  as  such  in 
times  of  necessity.  During,'  the  Hebellion.  when  small 
coins  as  well  as  lar^^e  ones  were  withdrawn  from  circu- 
lation, there  were  issued  immense  (piantities  of  sucli 
tokens  now  known  as  "copperheads."  The  "Hard 
Tinu>»  U'okens,"  or  "Politicals,"  of  18:!7  is  another 
instance  in  this  country,  wliiio  similar  pieces  are  abun- 
dant in  Canada  and  (Jreat  Britain. 

MoNKY  is  from  the  Latin  wtonc^a,  and  in  the  temple  of  Juno 
Aloneta  the  Roman  mint  was  located. 

Numismatics  is  the  scierce  of  coins  and  medals,  which  are 
here  considered  as  works  of  art  without  reference  to 
their  intrinsic  value. 

TiiK  I'l.ANCHKT  is  the  blank  metal  on  which  the  piece  is 
struck. 

The  Ohveksk  is  that  side  of  a  coin  or  medal  bearing  thff 
head  or  principal  figure. 

Tub  Uevkrsk  is  the  opposite  side. 

Thk  Lkgknd  is  any  inscription  excepting  the  name  of  the 
person  represented. 

The  iNSCRirTioN  is  a  general  term  including  all  legends, 
titles,  etc. 


6  TECHNICAL  TKUM3   AND   DEI'INITIOXS. 

The  FiKi.D  is  the  blank  surface  between  the  device  ami  the 

inscription. 
The  Mint  Mauk  is  a  private  mark  struck  by  the  mint  to  in- 
dicate its  place  of  coinage. 
Fillet  head,— hair  tied  with  a  ribbon  at  back  of  head. 
Flowing  hair,— hair  untied,  and  flowing  backward. 
Turban  head,— bound  with  a  turban  inscribed  "Liberty." 
Lettered  edge,— has  an  inscription  on  the  edge. 
Milled,  or  Reeded,  edge,— ribbed  or  serrated,  to  prevent 

cutting  down  or  shaving  of  gold  and  silver  corns. 
Type3  are  the  different  designs  of  similar  coins ;  vide  our 

iiiree  types  of  5-cent  pieces  in  1883. 
Varieties  are  slight  variations  of  the  same  type,  and  are 
usually  so  slight  as  to  escape  observation  unless  specially 
directed.     As  an  example,  the  silver  coins  of  1873  have 
two  marked  varieties  ;  one  having  arrow  ponits  at  date, 
the  other  without. 
Size  in  this  country  is  reckoned  in  sixteenths  of  an  inch. 
Coins  are  classed  according  to  condition,  as  follows : 
Uncirculated,— as  it  comes  from  the  mint. 
Nearly  uncirculated,— showing  no  marks  of  handling. 
Very  fine,— showing  only  the  slightest  trace  of  usage. 
Fine,— barely  touched  by  circulatioH. 
Very  good,— but  little  worn. 
Good,— well  defined,  but  showing  abrasion  on  hair,  cheek, 

stars  or  other  higher  part  of  device. 
Very  fair,— inscription  and  device  perfectly  clear. 
Fair,— inscription  and  device  legible. 
Poor,— worn  almost  beyond  recognition. 
Very  poor, — device  and  inscription  obliterated. 
Proofs  are  coins  struck  for  collectors,  and  not  for  circula- 
tion.    The  dies  and  planchets  for  these  are  highly  pol- 
ished, and  they  are  wrapped  in  prepared  paper  to  pre- 
vent corrosion  of  their  mirror-like  surfaces.

OF  THE  AMERICAN  COLONIES.

Coins  of  the  American  Colonies. 


Tlicre  are  so  niany  varieties  of  some  of  tliese  coins,  diflTer- 
injr  j^reatly  in  <legree  of  rarity,  that  it  is  impossible  to  alBx 
tlieir  market  values  with  accuraiy.  An  apjiroximation  lias 
laeen  matle  with  those  usually  in  dealers'  stock  ;  the  rest  are 
quoted  "  scarce,"  "  rare,"  or  "  extremely  rare." 

In  arrangement  I  have  followed  the  order  of  their  issue 
as  far  as  was  consistent  with  keeping  them  in  their  natural 
groups,  with  the  "Washington  pieces"  following  in  their 
order  of  issue. 

Kach  piece  is  described  with  sudicient  minuteness  to  be 
readily  recognized  by  the  amateur.
